Umthandazo welungisa

Umhobe kaDavide.

1 Ndigwebele, *Ndikhoyo;

kaloku azisoleki iindlela zam,

nethemba lam kuwe aligungqi.

2 Ndivavanye, undicikide, Ndikhoyo;

yigocagoce intliziyo yam ngokunjalo neengcinga zam.

3 Ndisoloko ndikhokelwa zizibele zothando lwakho;

ndihamba njalo nasenyanisweni yakho.

4 Andinanto yakwenza namamenemene,

ndaye ndingenabudlelwana nabakhohlisi.

5 Ndiyithiyile imbutho yabantw’ abagwenxa,

ndaye ndingadlelani nabantw’ abangcolileyo.

6 Ndazihlamba kubo ezam izandla,

ndenjenjeya ukuy’ esibingelelweni sakho, Ndikhoyo,

7 ndivuma ingoma yombongo,

ndibalisa ngazo zonk’ izenzo zakhw’ ezingummangaliso.

8 Ndiyakuthanda ukuhlala endlwini yakho, Ndikhoyo,

apho sikhoyo isidima nesithozela sakho.

9 Ungandikhukhulisi kunye naboni,

ungandidibi nezigwinta,

10 abantw’ abazandla zipheth’ ukungcola,

abasoloko begush’ ukunyoba.

11 Ke mna ndohlala ndingasoleki;

ndihlangule undenzel’ inceba.

12 Iinyawo zam zithe zinzi emhlabeni;

ndibonga uNdikhoyo ebandleni.
